This fall I'll be purchasing a new personal Laptop. I'm thinking about going with a Macbook Pro with Leopard. My question is how compatible will it be with Windows machines. For instance if I have M.S. Office files to share can I do that? If I have Windows-based games like World of Warcraft will I need Mac versions or can I use my current CDs? Most importantly I’m going to grad school in the fall. I assume most of my classmates will be using windows laptops. How will our file/program sharing go? Will I be a big pain in the ****?
Part of the fun and intrigue of a Mac is ease of use and exploring "Mac Computing" after all these years of being on Windows machines. But I don't want to be on an island.
Thanks for your thoughts.

You know, on the new Leopard OS you can run Windows on a Mac using Parallels and on Tiger using a software included, but IDK the name. Believe me I got my Macbook Pro, and I will NEVER go back to Windows.
